Pentecostal Spirituality

Life gets increasingly complex. Sometimes we just need to slow down and purposefully simplify. In this weekly devotional LJ Harry calls us to stop and reflect on the Christian Life-to see the humor and to enjoy the simple pleasure of life. And in the process, we see God at work in the everyday world. Listen. Pray. Reflect. Repeat.

As believers around the world pray for renewal and revival in our conflicted times, they often neglect a key ingredient: pursuing God's presence. The problem, says pastor and theologian Roger Helland, is that we were never taught, in a balanced and biblical way, how to seek, experience, and host God's kavod—his radiant glory, his manifest presence. Offering grounded and practical teaching, balanced with Scripture and Spirit, Helland shows how to live out a deeper biblical experience of the Holy Spirit and the manifest presence of God.

Many Jesus followers are sleepwalking through their Christian lives. They wear a smile, attend church gatherings, and try their best to make it through, but they don't really expect answered prayers, breakthroughs, or a miraculous change in their situations. Why? Disappointment and disillusionment. The Bible calls this "hope deferred." What we hoped for did not happen, and we are left with hopes and dreams that are dead.

Dr. Munroe explains how reclaiming god's original purpose for your life will bring you joy, peace, and abundant living.

Smith Wigglesworth was a man who flowed in the gifts of the Spirit. Miracles, signs, and wonders were common place in his meetings and many thousands were impacted by his ministry.

This book contains many of his teachings on the gifts of the Spirit.

When many Christians think about the second coming of Jesus, they imagine apocalyptic disaster, fear and terror, and world-collapse. But what if the second coming was more like a wedding than a catastrophe? If Jesus is returning as the bridegroom, shouldn’t his bride - the Church - focus more on deepening their commitment to him than on comparing global events to last-days timelines?

Stop longing for the supernatural and start living it. Here is everything you need to become a vehicle of God’s glory and join the end-time company of radical believers releasing his presence, power, signs, and wonders into everyday life.

For some people “Pentecostal” is a new word. Although it has become much more common in recent years, its roots go back to an ancient Jewish feast and, more recently, to the first outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the earliest Christian believers. Because this initial outpouring of the Spirit took place on the Day of Pentecost, those who experience a similar infilling of the Spirit are known as Pentecostals. They look to the book of Acts as a guide for how to live out their Christian faith.

About 95 percent of Spirit-baptized Christians don't understand the purposes and benefits of speaking in tongues.
